This week I’ll be sharing several cards using the Basic Borders Dies. These dies add an interesting element to any card!
Today’s card was also created using Rings of Love Designer Series Paper. This paper can be earned free with a $50 purchase and it’s only available until Wednesday, August 31st! I LOVE this paper and really wish it wasn’t going away.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock and then used the Basic Borders Dies to cut the scalloped border. Then I cut a piece of Rings of Love Designer Series Paper and adhered it to the inside of the card. I stamped the sentiment in Night of Navy ink using the the stamp set, Go To Greetings.
Next, I cut a piece of Basic White cardstock and ran it through the Cut & Emboss Machine using the Brick & Mortar 3D Embossing Folder. I adhered it to a piece of Night of Navy cardstock and then placed it on the card front. I used the Beautiful Shapes Dies to cut a circle out of Basic White cardstock and then used my Paper Snips to cut a house out of the Rings of Love Designer Series Paper which I then adhered to the Basic White circle. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the circle and adhered it to the card.
To complete my card, I used two pieces of Linen Thread to create a bow and placed a Mini Glue Dot in the center before adhering it to the house. You can find all the measurements I used to create today’s card below the Supply List.

Today I’m sharing another card using Rings of Love Designer Series Paper. I love this paper and it’s FREE with a $50 purchase during Sale-a-Bration! I shared another card yesterday with a different design from this package of paper and you can see it here.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock for the base of my card. Then I added a layer of Mint Macaron cardstock, Night of Navy cardstock and Rings of Love Designer Series Paper (you can find the measurements I used below the supply list). Next, I used the Amazing Thanks Dies to cut the word “thanks” out of Night of Navy and Basic White cardstock. I used Multipurpose Glue to adhere the two pieces together (another option is to use our Adhesive Sheets). I added Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back (I cut some in half) and adhered it to the front of the card.
The sentiment I used is from the Happiness Abounds stamp set but I didn’t want the entire sentiment so I covered the part I didn’t want with Post It Tape (or you can use a post it note). Then I inked the stamp with Night of Navy ink, removed the post it tape and stamped onto Basic White cardstock. The trick is to remember to remove the post it tape!!! I can’t tell you how many times I’ve forgotten this really important step! 🙂
I used the Stylish Shapes Dies to cut out the sentiment. The die is larger than the sentiment and has a banner at each end so I positioned one end of the die at the beginning of the sentiment and then trimmed off the other end with my Paper Snips. These are excellent and very sharp scissors! I added Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card. To complete my card, I added five clear Elegant Faceted Gems to the front.

If you live in the U.S., Happy 4th of July!
Today’s card was made using Rings of Love 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper. This is a Sale-a-Bration product you can earn with a $50 purchase! I absolutely love these little birds and I knew I wanted the least amount of birds to be covered up!
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock. Then I added a piece of Rings of Love Designer Series Paper to a piece of Night of Navy cardstock (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List). Before adhering it to the card base, I wrapped White Baker’s Twine (included in the Baker’s Twine Essentials Pack) and wrapped it around the two layers, twice, and tied a bow. Then I added adhesive to the back and adhered it to the card base.
I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of Basic White cardstock in Night of Navy ink using the new stamp set, Soft Seedlings (I love the font style of the sentiments in this set). Then I cut it out using the Stylish Shapes Dies and I cut a larger circle out of Night of Navy cardstock. I adhered the two pieces together and then added two Stampin’ Dimensionals at the top of the Night of Navy circle and two at the bottom ( I do this so that the dimensionals aren’t sitting on the twine). Super simple card but if you have a great Designer Series Paper, your card doesn’t have to be complicated!
